New - from New Zealand
 

Hi all, I'm Jade from NZ I just wanted to pop on here and make my arrival known :)
Also I was going to add a pic of my XT but the insert image icon seems to want a web addy? is there no way to just add a pic from my pc?
Also I have a stage 2 hot cam on the way does anyone know of a raptor cam for sale that I can rob the decomp bits out of?
And finally has anyone tried to run the XT without the decomp will the starter struggle to turn the motor over?
Cheers,
Jade

Hi Jade

re attaching pics it's explained here: http://www.xt660.com/forumdisplay.php?f=19

Hi and welcome to the forum! Steve

Hi Jade and welcombe.
Photobucket is easy for photo posting on forums.

:006: Welcome on board Jade.

The Raptor motor has a completely different decompression mechanism to that on the XTs so the parts aren't interchangeable. You have to run one or the other.

Yes I am aware of that thank you. Hot cams only make a cam for the raptor motor so I need the decomp bits from a stock raptor cam to fit to my hot cam. Also I have discovered that the YFM700 grizzly farm quad also runs the same decomp assembly as the raptor.

Welcome
 

Hi Jade,

Welcome to the forum.
There is specialist tech assistance inside the supporters area if you would like the extra level of involvement on the forum. I used it when I was setting up my '05 X. Well worth it.

Would you post a thread showing us your cam mod progress? Be good to see it evolve.

I live on Aucklands North Shore, Beach Haven. There are few 660s around. Mostly commuters but a few get used in anger.

I have twin two brothers on mine, DNA 1&2, fuel mod, AIS and airbox mods. Makes a good difference over stock, keep us in the loop.

I have taken your advice and become a paying member and stated a stage 2 hotcam thread in the general section :)

A little late but..
Hello and welcome.
I'm just down the road from you in Blenheim, let us know if you feel like meeting up.
The guys and I are usually out most weekends on our bikes.

Hi there, I took the XT over to blen last weekend with the misses on the back, went down queen charlotte sounds way on the way over, caught up to a guy riding a WR450 covered in mud on the way back. Was a good day trip :)
